Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Down the Shore - Tales From the Beaches and Boards of New Jersey is a story about fun and good times, and about a place that is special to millions of people. Life has been severely disrupted here recently, and the author hopes that this book will serve as a reminder that, even in the face of disaster, our memories are wonderful things to have. Hurricane Sandy. I am not going to follow the crowd and call it the superstorm, as I do not intend to show her that much respect. We all know how this most horrendous storm recently devastated Seaside Heights, New Jersey, and a whole lot more of the Jersey Shore. Memories, however, are fleeting but stable things, and no act of nature can wash them away or blow them out to sea. This terrible storm reminded me of how easily the things and places we hold dear to us can be taken away, just like that... In contrast, this little book is all about fun, good times, parties and great places to be. Sprinkled in among the anecdotes are some true statistics and some reference to the popular music as it related to the times when these events took place. Most of what you are about to read here happened in the late '70s and early '80s, though it does follow through straight to the present day. So sit back and relax, and have a good laugh, or maybe a good shake of the head. Take a ride with me down the shore; walk the boards, stroll the beach, ride the rides and revel in the music of the times, while I share some truly fun experiences with you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Jersey Shore, Dominick Mazzagetti provides a modern re-telling of the history, culture, and landscapes of this famous region, from the 1600s to the present. The Shore, from Sandy Hook to Cape May, became a national resort in the late 1800s and contributes enormously to New Jersey’s economy today. The devastation of Hurricane Sandy in 2012 underscored the area’s central place in the state’s identity and the rebuilding efforts after the storm restored its economic health. Divided into chronological and thematic sections, this book will attract general readers interested in the history of the Shore: how it appeared to early European explorers; how the earliest settlers came to the beaches for the whaling trade; the first attractions for tourists in the nineteenth century; and how the coming of railroads, and ultimately automobiles, transformed the Shore into a major vacation destination over a century later. Mazzagetti also explores how the impact of changing national mores on development, race relations, and the environment, impacted the Shore in recent decades and will into the future. Ultimately, this book is an enthusiastic and comprehensive portrait by a native son, whose passion for the region is shared by millions of beachgoers throughout the Northeast.

Book excerpt: Summer visitors and year-round residents alike are sure to discover Jersey Shore lore that captures their fancy in this entertaining account of the people, places, and events that have shaped New Jersey's famous shoreline.

You'll find out why the boardwalk was invented, and also why early ones were removable. Join the authors as they pay tribute to the Shore's forgotten inventors, including Simon Lake, who some consider the true father of the modern submarine. Relive the Jersey Shore's role in wartime and learn the story of the mysterious Nazi submarine sunken off of Point Pleasant Beach. Read about Lucy the Margate Elephant, as a well as her two long-gone "cousins." Discover all this and more as Roberts and Youmans explore the vast uncharted heritage of the New Jersey Shore.
